Some identities involving degenerate Stirling numbers arising from normal ordering

In this paper, we derive some identities and recurrence relations for the degenerate Stirling numbers of the first kind and of the second kind, which are degenerate versions of the ordinary Stirling numbers of the first kind and of the second kind. They are deduced from the normal orderings of degen...

Description
Summary:In this paper, we derive some identities and recurrence relations for the degenerate Stirling numbers of the first kind and of the second kind, which are degenerate versions of the ordinary Stirling numbers of the first kind and of the second kind. They are deduced from the normal orderings of degenerate integral powers of the number operator and their inversions, certain relations of boson operators and the recurrence relations of the Stirling numbers themselves. Here we note that, while the normal ordering of an integral power of the number operator is expressed with the help of the Stirling numbers of the second kind, that of a degenerate integral power of the number operator is represented by means of the degenerate Stirling numbers of the second kind.
